We find the following in the OHIO State

We find the following in the 0'IiO State
Journal. of Friday morning:
Dr. Howard Crosby. the able and persis-
tent advocate of high license, who has been
a powerful advocate for sobriety and tenn
perance all his life, rather shocked some of
his friends when he came out recently in
favor of moderate drinking of wine and
beer. but DIR. Isaac X. Funk. the plumed
knight of New York prohibitionists. de
clared last Sunday that Crosby's position is
logical. and that drinking wine is not in
itself either wickedness or vice. Now
look out for protests all along the line.
Dr. Funk Ia Springfield boy, by the wayl
is the owner of the national prohibition
organ. the Voice, the smartest and ablest
prohibition paper in the world. and the way
the protests will flock toward him for the
next month, will be awful.

Concerning the rumored resignation of
General Kennedy, the Ohio State Journal.
of Friday, says:
From the rumors In circulation for several
days past it would seem that General Ken
nedy's resignation as Lieutenant governor
has been written, but il had not reached
the governor up TO last night The fact
that it will be due from March 4. coupled
with the report already mentioned, has
caused Governor Forakers mail to daily
contain letters suggesting that this or that
man should be appointed as his successor
While no information has been given out as
to who the governor will designate to pre-
side over the deliberations of the senate
il is believed that General Asa 5. Bushnell
of Springfield, will be the man. In this
connection il is well to mention the fact
that the designations as senators of Messrs.
Grouse and Pugsley. who are also con-
gressmen-elect, are expected on or before
March l.
